Description

"This land is your land, this land is my land..."
An often overlooked aspect of the battle against climate change is the role of faith based contributions to the cause.
Listen as your hosts Portia Cook and Jevon McKinney explore how religion and faith issues connect with our current climate crisis. They invite special guest, Reverend Terry Hobart from St. Thomas Episcopal Church in Denver, to give some perspective into these issues as a leader in the faith community. 
So how can faith communities unify our country and build a shared awareness of the need to protect our planet and democracy? 
Listen as Portia, Jevon, and Terry reflect on their own experiences with all different kinds of faiths and their connection to nature, peace, gratitude, and love.
